Great point. I did not know about this before, but it makes sense

[@evan_gilmore]

Is it fine to do movements like squats, deadlifts, and ohp as long as you decompress the spine afterwards? All the downsides of those movements come from a flattened and compressed spine, so by that logic wouldn't hanging or gravity boots reverse that compression on the discs and decompress the spine?

[@cyzz_life]

That's a good question, I don't 100% know, but I avoid those heavy compound lifts just in case. Hanging and gravity boots do decompress the spine, but once that fluid has been forced out, it takes a lot longer for it to be absorbed back. Repeat this process enough times, and your body will reach a level of conditioning where the discs will stay flatter in anticipation of being squished again. This eventually leads to disc herniation. Similar idea of raising your baseline test and HGH levels by working out consistently.

[@evan_gilmore]

5-10 lb isn't very much. I used to use 30 lb per leg for a month and didn't see any measurable results. However, I only did it for 2 hrs before bed after my runs.

It's all about dosage. At the end of the day, all AIs do is decrease estrogen. If you significantly crash your estrogen (by any means), you'll mess with the development of your facial bone structure.

12-15% is what you should aim for. Any more than this, and your body produces more estrogen than what's ideal. And as a reminder, more estrogen closes GP faster. My advice is to cut down slow.

I'll create a video on this soon. From experience you want to "keep the pipeline full" and encourage constant bone turnover by running or exercising every day.

Hunger and pain in the arms/legs isn't indicative of growth, but it's possible that you're going through a late growth spurt. However, if you do confirm that your growth plates are closed (they usually do around 18-21), then look into post-puberty growth methods such as postural correction and banded sleeping.
